let the angles be 3x and 5x respectively
3x+5x=180. .........corresponding angles
8x=180
x=22.5
therefore 3x=67.5 and 5x=112.5
therefore all angles are 67.5,112.5.67.5,112.5

Answer:
Given: 2 adjacent angles of a parallelogram are in ratio 3:5
To find: All the angles of the parallelogram
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the llgm be ABCD (llgm is the short form of parallelogram)
<A = 3x <B = 5x
<C=<A=3x (Vertically opposite angles are equal)
<D=<B=5x (Vertically opposite angles are equal)
<A+<B+<C+<D=360 (Angles Sum Property of a quadilateral)
3x+5x+3x+5x=360
16x = 360
x = 360/16 = 22.5
5 x 22.5=112.5, 3 x 22.5= 67.5
Hope it helps you!
